Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables
    This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
  • Client-side Injection-induced Buffer Overflow
    This type of attack exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in targeted client software through injection of malicious content from a custom-built hostile service.
  • Filter Failure through Buffer Overflow
    In this attack, the idea is to cause an active filter to fail by causing an oversized transaction. An attacker may try to feed overly long input strings to the program in an attempt to overwhelm the filter (by causing a buffer overflow) and hoping that the filter does not fail securely (i.e. the user input is let into the system unfiltered).
  • Buffer Overflow via Symbolic Links
    This type of attack leverages the use of symbolic links to cause buffer overflows. An attacker can try to create or manipulate a symbolic link file such that its contents result in out of bounds data. When the target software processes the symbolic link file, it could potentially overflow internal buffers with insufficient bounds checking.
  • Overflow Variables and Tags
    This type of attack leverages the use of tags or variables from a formatted configuration data to cause buffer overflow. The attacker crafts a malicious HTML page or configuration file that includes oversized strings, thus causing an overflow.

CVE-2018-5686

In MuPDF, there was an infinite loop vulnerability and application
hang in the pdf_parse_array function (pdf/pdf-parse.c) because EOF not
having been considered. Remote attackers could leverage this
vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted PDF file.

CVE-2019-6130

MuPDF had a SEGV in the function fz_load_page of the fitz/document.c
file, as demonstrated by mutool. This was related to page-number
mishandling in cbz/mucbz.c, cbz/muimg.c, and svg/svg-doc.c.

CVE-2018-6192

In MuPDF, the pdf_read_new_xref function in pdf/pdf-xref.c allowed
remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation violation
and application crash) via a crafted PDF file.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version
1.5-1+deb8u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your mupdf packages.
